I use gnome-system-monitor 2.21.92. I use GNOME yelp 2.21.90
I checked the system's activity levels using the system monitoricon in the bottom desktop bar. When yelp is not running and the system is idle. The computer's activity is around 0 %. When yelp is running. The activity is around 40 %. When I open the System Monitors' windows with yelp running the CPU activity level reaches 100%. I ran ltrace and strace on yelp as quick debugging tools. When I ran all three: system monitor window, yelp and strace on yelp, I froze Linux. There are missing resources in yelp, and that creates a race condition. You can read the race condtion at the end of strace log. I prametrized yelp with a simple sequence: open application, call menu to close. Leaving the system monitor window displayed.
